Just had a look at that report and yeah, the timeline is all over the place. The witness says they lost about 3 hours but the physical evidence they describe - the scorched grass, the marks on their arms - those look more consistent with something that happened over a much shorter window. I've seen similar discrepancies in cases where the witness has genuinely experienced missing time, thier memory of the lead-up gets compressed somehow.
The bit that really got me was the neighbour corroborating the lights but putting them at a completely different time to the main witness. That's either a massive problem for the report's credibility or it's actually interesting in its own right, like two separate events happening close together.
Anyone pulled the local weather data for that night? Sometimes what looks like a timeline inconsistency is just the investigator not accounting for cloud cover affecting how witnesses judge duration. Would love to see someone dig into this properly rather than MUFON just filing it away.
